"Hi this is Mike. We're hanging out at 11,000'. We're stalled with a bit of snow and weather...." [Then he was disconnected. He tried calling back again right after, but couldn't get anything through.]

Great to know you are making vertical progress, even though the dispatch #4 was cut short. I hope you are more comfortable with the snow and wind than I am here in Singapore with the heat and humidity. Keep those dispatches coming! Even abbreviated by weather, it is comforting to get a report.Kris Slentz

Wondering how you guys are going up there. Here in NZ we have lots of snow so ski season looking promising. I guess snow is the last thing you want to hear about. Have taken dogs for walk in the bush and the beach this afternoon. Sending you lots of good weather wishes so that you can get to 14. Take care Jacqui,, Bernie and Pepper. X

Warning

Climbing, skiing and mountaineering are dangerous sports. When you undertake an outdoor, backcountry, or an alpine adventure without a guide, you assume total responsibility for your decisions and wellbeing. Conditions in the mountains are constantly changing, and no guidebook or computer web blog can take the place of solid training and experience. Though this site features descriptions of roads, trails, climbing routes, and other natural features, you cannot assume that because something is described here that it has not changed since last observed or that it will be safe for you or your party.
